For Building Companies

You Build. We Clear the Path.

Feasibility, planning, design documentation and DA lodgement — handled on a fixed fee while your crew stays on the tools. Builders engage us for the front end while keeping the build.

The Problem

Every Week in Planning Is a Week Off the Tools

Your margin is made on site, not at the council counter. Yet the front end of every job — feasibility, planning pathway, design documentation, DA lodgement, referrals, land division — eats unbillable weeks and holds your pipeline hostage to assessment queues.

Building companies hand that front end to us not because they cannot do it, but because their time is worth more on the jobs they have already won.

The Package

What We Take Off Your Plate

One engagement covers the whole front end. You get a lodgement-ready pathway; your crew stays on the tools.

  • Feasibility and yield check before you commit to the site
  • Planning pathway and Code assessment — DTS where it can be, argued where it can't
  • Design documentation coordinated across our in-house planners, architects and engineers
  • DA lodgement, referral agencies and council follow-up until consent lands
  • Land division, Section 51 clearance and titles when the job needs them

The build stays yours. We only do the front end — we don't bid your jobs, and we don't take your client.

Before & After

The Front End, Run Two Ways

Running it yourself

  • Supervisor hours burned on council phone queues and RFI drafting
  • Design, survey and engineering briefed separately — then re-briefed when they clash
  • Hourly-rate consultants, with no single owner of the outcome
  • The pipeline waits on each consent before the next site can start

With CPM on the front end

  • One fixed fee, agreed before work starts
  • In-house planners, architects and engineers on one documentation package
  • One accountable manager working lodgement, referrals and RFIs
  • Your crew builds on one site while we clear the next

How It Works

From Site Address to Lodgement-Ready

A defined scope with a fixed, transparent fee — agreed before work starts.

1

Site Brief

Send the address and what you intend to build. We come back with the pathway, the constraints and a fixed fee.

2

Design & Documentation

Our planners, architects and engineers produce and coordinate the documentation package to lodgement standard.

3

Lodgement & Follow-Up

We lodge, manage referrals and RFIs, and work the assessment so the clock keeps running while you build elsewhere.

4

Handover to Your Crew

Consent, conditions and a clean documentation set land back with you. You start on site; we move to your next one.

Why Builders Stay

Priced for the Trade, Run Like a Project

Builders judge suppliers the same way they judge subbies: turnaround, price, and whether the work holds up. That's the test we're built for.

  • Fixed fees agreed up front — no open-ended consulting hours
  • In-house planning, architecture and engineering — fewer handoffs, faster documentation
  • A working record of how each Adelaide council actually assesses
  • Repeat engagement terms for builders with a steady pipeline
